Matthew Westbrook was huge no matter where he played even without the win. He struck out six batters over 5.1 innings while giving up just one earned (and one unearned) run off three hits. That's the most strikeouts he has posted since back in April of 2024. He was also stellar in the batter's box, going 3-for-4 with one home run. That home run marked the first that he launched this season.
In other batting news, Jon Bemus was cooking despite his team's loss, going 3-for-4 with two stolen bases. Those two stolen bases gave him a new career-high. Joshua Price also deserves some recognition as he snagged his first stolen base of the season.
Kennesaw Mountain has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won six of their last seven matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 13-4 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.3 runs on average over those games. Alexander's loss dropped their record down to 4-12.
